About Me

Name:
Location: Massachusetts, United States

My "I" is constantly changing (perhaps this is merely AD/HD): overdetermined nexus of cultural forces emanating from several continents: skeptical of all Truths and seeker of the truth: iconoclast by enculturation, brain chemistry, and, perhaps, choice: perpetually perplexed, particularly about why we exist/ as the manifestation of overdetermined forces whose existence (and nature) is not as solid (or simplistic) as we would like.

Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada

The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada is a tour de force by Tommy Lee Jones and now available on DVD. This is very much an independent film, in the best sense of that phrase, and is somewhat reminiscent of Jarmusch. One of the best redemption stories I've seen. Of course, as El has told me, "you have a western soul," so maybe I'm more inclined to like a film like The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada. In any event, I highly recommend it.
